“Judy was amazing with my fur baby Blanket, she communicated with me daily and sent pictures, she cared for him as if he was her own, I can see that he was happy and comfortable in her care, she spoiled him, I will definitely use her services again!! Thank you Judy!!!”
“Kevin did an amazing job watching my dog, Jamie, for the first time! He sent me daily photos of Jamie enjoying walks and relaxing in the sun on the balcony, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Jamie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I know he’s in great hands with Kevin, and I’ll definitely be rebooking!”
“We were so grateful to find Richard before a week long trip to Iceland. Riley had a great place to stay with a big, fenced in back yard and lots of love and play. He had a few puppy friends to play with, but he doesn't take too many dogs at a time so it wasn't overwhelming for our only-child pup. I highly recommend him!”
“Elvia is the best! Our dachshund loves her and so do we. Super reliable and takes such good care of our pup. We’ve used Elvia for both daytime and overnights and would highly recommend!”
“Nicoly was the perfect sitter for my dog Bandit. She is loving, patient and attentive. I received daily picture/video updates from walks to cuddles. Bandit couldn’t have been in better hands.”
“Tina and her husband took wonderful care of my Lucy. They were quick to respond/schedule a meet and greet and were very receptive of all of Lucy’s personality quirks. They were flexible with drop off/pick up, provided great updates, and were very communicative. Lucy will definitely be back!”
“Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!”
“Excellent. Will hire Ariel again. Pleasant and capable, she followed all care instructions to a tee for my 17 yr old dog. Responsive to all communications and kept me up to date on his well being, which I'm skitzo about because of his age.”
About: My love of dogs led me to start a dog walking business when I was only 10 yrs old. Once I finally convinced my parents to get a dog, I was 15 and we ended up with two bichon-malteses who were the loves of my life. As an adult, my career has me traveling frequently so I haven’t become a pet owner, but I continue to dogsit for friends and neighbors because I love the companionship when I’m home. I am committed to providing your dog a comfortable home away from home where they will be well cared for and loved. I work from home Mondays and Fridays so can be available for care for a long weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon). My availability may be limited based on work travel. I live in a dog friendly building, where there is greenery and walking paths around the building for daily walks and enjoy going for longer walks in nearby parks.
“Yenis was great! She was super communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos! Looked like our dog Tex had a great time and felt super comfortable! Would definitely book again 😊”
“First time back on Rover in a while. Needed a find a new dog sitter for a long weekend away and found Nandita. Excellent sitter. We met before the stay to see if my lab would get along with hers. They did and it gave me confidence that it was going to be a great weekend for my dog Cooper. Lots of photos/videos and updates during our time away. Communication was great. Happy dog = happy dog Dad. Thanks Nandita! You rock.”
“Clinton and his son Lincoln were fantastic. Lots of pictures and videos along with walks and play sessions. Our pup might have had more fun on vacation than we did. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’m the type of sitter who pays attention to the little things — routines, favorite toys, energy levels, and comfort needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I adapt to what each pet needs. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, loved, and understood, and that’s the environment I strive to provide. Plus, you can expect plenty of updates and photos! Pets fit easily into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get the attention, exercise, care, and consistency they need — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just company and cuddles. I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy and comfortable. I care for pets by creating a safe, calm, and loving environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and a comfortable space to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I respect their pet’s routine, environment, and instructions to help keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, dietary needs, and comfort, and I make sure owners receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Karine was absolutely wonderful. We could tell our pup was expertly cared for during our time away. He had an amazing time with Karine, her husband and the other dogs. She was very consistent with updates, and made us feel at ease during the whole stay. We would recommend her to anyone 1000%”
“Anner was very accommodating. The dogs were very happy with him. We did a trial run for an overnight stay to see how they managed. They were happy dogs. When I dropped them off for their stay they were both excited. Thank you Anner, you have two fans. I will definitely use your services again.”
“Debbie took such great care of Bacca at her home while we were away overnight. Our sweet girl came home happy and tired. Debbie was wonderful with communicating and has such a warm personality; it was a pleasure working with her!”
“We're so glad that we found Tanya! Daisy had a wonderful time, and I had a rare opportunity to meet a friend for a nice evening in New York City! We will definitely be calling on Tanya again. Highly recommended!”
“Lisa was a fantastic sitter for our dog while we were in town for a wedding! She was very communicative and sent lots of photos and is clearly very experienced with dogs. Our girl is shy around new people but seemed to settle in super easily with Lisa and her family. Highly recommend Lisa for all your pup-sitting needs!”
“Barbara watched my puppy while I was away for a night and I was nervous since my pup had never stayed with anyone else before but she had a great time with Barbara! She kept me updated with texts and photos during Kaia’s stay. She also let Kaia sleep in her room which I really appreciate. Kaia was in good spirits when I picked her up. I will definitely use her again.”

Clinton was fantastic! Quick to respond and easy to communicate with. Our basset hound Millie stayed with him for a weekend and enjoyed herself. Clinton sent us multiple update pictures letting us know that she was comfortable and spending time with his son and golden retriever. Clinton’s backyard space was great for Millie too! We’ll definitely be repeat customers :)
Bella did so well with Judy. I received daily updates with pictures and she informed me about everything happening and she provided all of her meals, supplements and treats as we discussed. She helped me feel at ease since we were gone for two weeks on an international trip. Judy, thank you for taking such good care of Bella and for being so detail- oriented!
Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!
Kevin was enthusiastic & held the reins well, in acting as a surrogate for me, in the care of my lil Pup, who I adore! When I picked him up from his overnight stay… he returned happy, healthy & safe & sound! I also loved the pics he sent me. If needed again in the future, Kevin would be my “go to” caretaker for my Pup!
Está muy bien, solo haría unos pequeños cambios para que suene más natural en inglés: She was amazing! My dog loved her so much that when I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which showed me that she felt safe and comfortable. Yury was also super sweet and always sent me videos and pictures. I will DEFINITELY book with her again! Thank you, Yury — we are so grateful! También podrías hacerlo un poco más cálido: She was amazing! My dog absolutely loved her. When I went to pick her up, she didn’t want to leave, which told me she felt safe, happy, and comfortable. Yury was incredibly sweet and kept me updated with videos and pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you Yury, we are so grateful for the wonderful care you gave our dog! ❤️
I am very happy with Atilio & Silvia's family and how they care for and about my dogs. They are careful with their feeding and prescriptions - and have fun with the dogs. I got pictures and feedback daily and my dogs always looks very relaxed. I will defininately use them whenever I travel, with confidence and pleasure! Many thanks for your open hearts and caring home!
We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!
Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!

FAQs for Boarding - Stamford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stamford on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,940 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stamford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Stamford sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Stamford landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stamford home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Stamford.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Stamford sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
